If after installing GCM 1.17.0 and you're still having issues: please try removing all "Bitbucket" credentials from the Windows Credential Manager and then try again:

If you're still having basic login issues: you can also try manually adding your login: navigate to https://bitbucket.org and view your profile to obtain your username. After getting your username open the Windows Credential Manager, and add a Generic Credential under "Windows Credentials". Note: this will only work if you do not have 2FA enabled.

Thank you but I'm still having the same issue (Atlassian login pops up when I fetch), and it doesnt accept my app password. I kind of gave up on it and I'm just using the terminal window with git commands instead.

Ok, so I use basic authentication. I used to use a Windows GUI client to branch, pull and push etc, but recently moved to command line in VS. The GUI's seemed to never have this problem anyway, but the terminal did.

It turns out that what they say above does work. I've just installed the latest GIT Credential Manager, and then went and deleted and readded my Bitbucket credentials to the Generic Credentials.

Re-starting Visual Studio allowed me to push my code first time without showing the login box.
